The Daaquam River (French: Rivière Daaquam) is a river primarily flowing in the administrative region of Chaudière-Appalaches, at South of Quebec in Canada and northern Maine, in United States. The river runs from its source (46°22′01″N 70°22′48″W / 46.367°N 70.38°W / 46.367; -70.38 (Daaquam River)), south of Sainte-Justine, northeast across the Canada–United States border to the Northwest Branch of the Saint John River in Maine.

Its current is flowing through:

On the Canadian side, the Canadian Pacific Railway and Route 204 runs along the North side of the Daaquam river. The Daaquam river flows mostly in forest areas, crossing some agricultural areas. This river flows into the North East by gradually approaching the Canada-US border that it cross the boundary in the Township of Panet (in Quebec) and T11 R17 WELS Township (in Maine).

The Daaquam river rises in Notre Dame Mountains, in the township of Ware in the municipality of Lac-Etchemin, Quebec, in Les Etchemins Regional County Municipality (RCM), in the administrative region of Chaudière-Appalaches in the south-central Quebec. This source is located at 6.5 kilometres (4.0 mi) southeast of Lake Etchemin, to 3.8 kilometres (2.4 mi) east of the center of the village of Sainte-Germaine-Station and 13.5 kilometres (8.4 mi) north-east of the Canada-US border.
